Renormalized solutions for a p(·)-Laplacian equation with Neumann nonhomogeneous boundary condition involving diffuse measure data and variable exponent
M. B. Benboubker E. Nassouri, S. Ouaro, U. Traoré
In this paper we prove the existence of at least one renormalized solution for the p(x)-Laplacian equation associated with a maximal monotone operator and Radon measure data. The functional setting involves Sobolev spaces with variable exponent W^{1,p(·)}(Ω).

Does sex composition of offspring relate to fertility in urban areas? The case of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Bougma, Moussa, Vissého Adjiwanou, Jean-François Kobiané
With the onset of the demographic transition in sub-Saharan Africa, couples’ desired number of children and the sex composition of offspring may become conflicted, with potential effects on future fertility. While intuitively expected, this effect has not been observed in studies in sub-Saharan Africa, where the level of fertility is higher th(...)

Abstract: Pyrethroid resistance in the Anopheles vectors of malaria is driving an urgent search for
new insecticides that can be used in proven vector control tools such as insecticide treated nets (ITNs).
Screening for potential new insecticides requires access to stable colonies of the predominant vector
species that contain the major pyr(...)
